I am what I am I'm a man who understands That the welcome will not end When the lover is your friend And now that I can see That the killer here is me And I think that you'd agree Sometimes it's better just to bend Baby, I'm a mess A coward nonetheless A stranger to myself And a danger to your health I won't take it lightly This thing that you've given to me To believe that I'm ready to be The man that you want me to be... Instead of the enemy Don't you wanna feel The way we used to feel When the summer was our friend And we didn't have to steal Now the words are on your tongue Just like they were before I've seen what I've become Still I'm coming back for more I won't take it lightly This thing that you've given to me To believe that I'm ready to be The man that you want me to be... Instead of the enemy How long must I become What I've hated for so long I won't take it lightly This thing that you've given to me To believe that I'm ready to be The man that you want me to be... Instead of the enemy
